Calendarium helps you live in the present and the past. The top portion of the screen displays today’s date, the week of the year, sunrise and sunset times, and the number of days that have passed and are left in the year. The bottom portion includes all of the historical events and major holidays that occurred on this very day. Tap and hold on an event or holiday to share it via Twitter, Facebook, Messages, or email.

You must first download the free companion software for your computer from Splashtop's website. Then launch Gesture Touchpad on your iPhone or iPod touch and your computer will be discovered automatically. Once everything is connected, you'll be able to control your computer with multitouch gestures, key combinations, and virtual mouse clicks.

Monument Valley is simply stunning. There’s no other way to put it. The minimalist 3-D design creates a world that you won’t want to leave. The object of the game is to guide Ida, a silent princess, through mysterious monuments by completely changing their shape. As you twist and drag paths, new ones will appear. It’s a delightful surprise every single time. Don’t forget to put on headphones as well, as the audio reacts to your every move.

The lives of the Stubies are in your hands. They will walk mindlessly around the screen, bumping into each other and anything else in their way. But that’s not even the worst part! If left alone, they’ll simply walk right off of the platforms. The only way to save them is by removing them from their dangerous environments, which is accomplished by having two Stubies of the same color touch each other. You’re able to tap and swipe to complete your goal.

Little Food Truck is certified child friendly. You won’t find any outside links or in-app purchases here. Just pure entertainment. Your child must choose from four different characters before hitting the streets to dish up tasty treats. When the window opens, it’s time to serve. Your child will be tasked with completing orders for picky customers and unlocking new menu items with the money earned. Everything from donuts and waffles to chicken wings and hot dogs will need to be served.
